Whatever Next

Listen to the story:

“Whatever Next’ by Jill Murphy.

Baby Bear wants to go to the moon and so searches around the house until he finds a rocket (a cardboard box), a space-helmet (a colander) and space-boots (his wellies). All set, he blasts off out of the chimney and into the night. Baby Bear makes friends with an owl and soars high into the night sky until finally they reach the moon, where they have a picnic! Of course, when he returns to earth for his bath, his mother doesn’t believe where he has been. The moon and back before bath time?
